[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child was accepted to potomac and a few other schools- and we had planned to send ds to potomac based on the tours, what we saw, heard, read, researched and learned....... i had heard that the potomac admission process was a bit drier than other schools.  Now that the acceptance letter has been sent, we have received calls from parents of kids at other schools to which we were accepted who seemed excited.... nothing else from potomac.  I am fine if the admission process at potomac doesn't give the "warm fuzzies" but want to be sure that i understand the environment of potomac.  When does that excitement start at potomac?[/quote]

Current Potomac family.  I recall getting a call after we put down our initial deposit.  That's when the school knows you are serious.  They do things differently than the DC schools, but you shouldn't read too much into it.  You will eventually hear from a family and will be invited to new parent meeting, etc.   It is just on a different timetable than the DC schools ("big 3," anyway).  My DC loves Potomac, and we are amazed at how warm his teachers are, etc.  DC comes home happy every day and everyone we have met (parents, teachers, etc.) are very nice.  [/quote]
